The development of the Serbian Crop Machine (SRM) represents a long-term inventive effort by Stanko Mandic, a renowned Serbian inventor, who won numerous awards. Several prototypes were made, including SRM-3 and SRM-6, whose purpose was to complete five tasks in a single pass: plowing with a rotating plough, dispensing of mineral compost, ground milling, leveling and sowing of crops.

Developed models were successfully tested in practice and found their application in the industry with an increased yield of wheat (12%), sunflower (35%), corn (10%), along with the record increase of 40% in suger beet yields. Developed technical solutions were submitted to the Intelectual Property Office.

Within this project, the Innovation Center was involved in the development of the technical design, 3D models, numerical simulations, technical and manufacturing documentation, as well as in organising of operating activities.

The project of development of the Serbian Crop Machine was financed by the European Union and the World Bank, while being supervised by the Innovation Fund of Republic Serbia, as part of the "start up" project.
